Working Fluid Selection in Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) with Flue Gas Heat Utilization
Keywords:
organic rankine cycle, organic working fluids, engine waste heat recoveryAbstract
There are many potential sources of excess heat that have not been utilized, the ORC system offers a solution to utilize this energy, thereby increasing overall energy efficiency. Highlighting the advantages of the ORC system, including its ability to operate at lower temperatures, utilize a variety of working fluids, and utilize heat efficiently from various sources. describing the methodical process of choosing the best and most suitable working fluid, including the types of working fluids, how they affect system performance, and the standards for choosing the best working fluid based on physical and thermodynamic characteristics. Furthermore, emphasis is placed on environmental effects, safety considerations, and the kind of heat source that will be used. The use of exhaust gas heat will be the main topic of this essay from PLTMG engines according to the author's research.
